Here’s the new weekly presidental approval poll. Remember — even if you voted last week, you’ll want to vote again on this poll as this is a weekly feature and the results will vary from week to week. Let your opinion be heard (for free)!
Remember: This approval poll applies to the current GWC re-watch schedule, which means you should be voting for your feelings circa Episode 106: “Litmus.”
Do you approve or Disapprove of the way Laura Roslin is handling her job as president?
- Approve: 80% (68 votes)
- Disapprove: 17% (14 votes)
- Unsure: 2% (3 votes)
Total Votes: 82
Note: This poll is closed, but you can vote in the new one.
Fair warning: it’s been a long week for the three of us, and we were a little punchy when we recorded this late at night. At any rate, we spend most of the podcast discussing this week’s re-watch episode, “You Can’t Go Home Again,” and take a few listener calls. Highlights: we enjoy the way Starbuck and the Adamas show their true selves in “Home Again,” discuss Starbuck’s serious Raider-gutting-and-flying skills and how they might show her to be one of the final five — comment on Six’s “blue napkin” dress, wonder why “bulletheads” are such bad shots, and question the effectiveness of Hera’s blood as a future (second) cure for Roslin’s cancer.

It’s week six of our planned off-season re-watch of the entire “re-imagined” BSG canon, and it’s time to move on to the season one episode “You Can’t Go Home Again.” So why not join us here for the GWC online frak party? There’s room for everyone, though you’ll have to bring your own snacks…
Feel free to jump in at any point with your comments on this week’s episode as the re-watch is by definition spoiler free. We’ll be in and out, but we’ll definitely take a look at your comments before we start next week’s podcast.
See you here all week!

Today we’re taking a little time to catch up on the re-watch, discussing Bastille Day and Act of Contrition — episodes that shine the light inside two main characters, giving us a much deeper view of who they are. Highlights: we talk about meeting Zarek for the first time, postulate about his direction in season four, break down everyone’s favorite scene between Adama and Starbuck, and contemplate a caller’s idea that Cylon(z) only show free will after experiencing love. Oh yeah, and I admit defeat in last week’s reader poll, coughing up a quarter to Sean.
